Culture News: Malia Obama to Intern at the U.S. Embassy in Spain

Malia Obama’s star just continues to radiate! Not only was she accepted into Harvard, but the beauty is going to be interning at the U.S. Embassy in Spain this Summer:

Beauty Malia Obama stunned at the White House State Dinner in an embellished dress.

Malia already flexed her Spanish language skills during her family’s recent trip to Cuba, thus this is definitely the perfect fit for her.

Her past internships have been in the film and television industries, so this will be a change. The HBO series, Girls, and Halle Berry’s series Extant are among her past experience.

President Obama and first daughters Sasha and Malia were present at the Presidential Turkey Pardon Ceremony.

Show Review: Balmain Resort 2017

Shortly after the French fashion house’s Spring 2017 Menswear show, Balmain’s Resort 2017 Womenswear collection has been released. Featuring many of the ensembles recently-debuted on the runway, the lookbook is brimming with high-octane glamour, animal print, metallics, and thigh-high slits.

Denim is among the most approachable and functional designs in the assortment—like a cargo-pocket accented tunic and flares along with a long duster. Eye-catching patterns are also staples: requisite for Olivier Rousteing and his slew of fashion-loving fans.

Balmain’s newest handbag collection is on display and sure to be on the arms of a Kardashian or Jenner quite soon. Black leather satchels with tassel detailing and geometric shapes, supple suede, colorblocking, and rope-inspired straps are all on the menu.

There is no shortage of red carpet-ready looks in the offerings. A cape dress with a tied waist, illusion shoulder cutouts, a plunging neckline, and front slit would please any number of Balmain’s Hollywood fans, while an off-the-shoulder crop top and high-waist, wrap slit trousers are a modern and fresh take on a couple of the year’s hottest trends.

I was most captivated by the crochet ensembles in the Menswear collection—they’re impossible to miss with their rainbow hues and figure-hugging silhouettes. They mesmerized me once again here. A high-waist knit pair of flares have totally captured my heart.

“I was inspired by the incredible legacy of Guy Bourdin and the bold spirit of the best ‘70s fashion editorials,”
said Rousteing on Balmain’s Instagram. “The collection’s silhouette, both relaxed and body-conscious, riffs on the uniquely sensual and confident style of legendary ‘70s fashion icons—Bianca, Iman, Lauren and Verushka.” This definitely radiated the vibrancy and boldness of 70’s fashion at its peak. You will certainly come as close as possible to looking like a supermodel in these designs.

 As gold as the carpet itself, Jourdan’s dress is made of jacquard silk with floral like embroidery.  The mini dress shows a lot of leg, yet a train at the back adds interest and drama. From her wavy, ombré bob to her subtle smokey eye, I mean, is there really any denying how hot Jourdan looks?  The gold uplifts her gorgeous complexion and the fit is impeccable. What do you think?
